SCOTT ALLAN has given the prize money from his debut fight against Anwar Alfadli to McMillan Cancer Support.

Saturday’s comfortable points win means the Scot will definitely face Francis Croes on the undercard of Ricky Burns’s world title showdown with Terence Crawford on March 1.

And former kickboxer Allan was quick to hand over his wage to a charity close to his heart.

The Wishaw fighter said: “My mother has fought and beaten cancer on two separate occasions so it’s a charity that is close to me. Due to this I will be donating my first boxing wage to them.

“I will be on the Ricky show and there were no bruises or marks on me.

“I was quite surprised it was so easy. I was getting a rhythm in the first two rounds and after that it was a target practice, no disrespect to the lad.”

Allan might have been undefeated as a world kickboxing champion but he lost his first encounter with new manager Alex Morrison.

The bantamweight will have to take on the best around to fulfil his lofty ambitions in the ring.

But he was runner-up the day he met Morrison, who also manages world champion Burns. Allan said: “Alex asked me, ‘What do you want?’ and I said, ‘Good money’.

“I also said, ‘I’m used to fighting 10 rounds so ideally I want six to eight rounds at the worst’.

“Then Alex said, ‘I’ll stop you right there. Seeing as how I’m your manager I will tell you who you fight, where you’re fighting and how many rounds. I’ll tell you right now Scott, your first fight is going to be four rounds’.

“I was thinking, ‘Oh s**t’. I was a bit annoyed but my dad was with me and he said, ‘Listen Scott, seeing as how he is your manager and knows the score you need to trust him. He has a world champion’.

“So I was a bit too big for my boots and I’m not going to mess about with Alex that’s for sure.”

Allan wants to go as high as Burns, adding: “My ambitions are what they were in kickboxing – to go all the way.”

Ronnie Clark – another fighter who moved from kickboxing – used to wind his trainer up by pretending his was going to kick out in the ring.

And Allan said: “I’m good friends with Ronnie but I don’t have a problem at all. I won 41 fights as an amateur – I’m used to it.”
